My 2011 G37x coupe has had this leak above the tweeters on the door for the past ~2 years. At first it would only leak a tiny amount of water when raining hard or going through a car wash, however it seems to have gotten worse (was aggressively leaking water today with light rain). Water doesn’t get on anything important, but it does leak down to the footwells where it accumulates and can lead to mold. This problem seems to be fairly common for coupes.

Any advice on how to fix? I’ve seen people say on the forums that replacing the door seal doesn’t always work and is pretty expensive.

I have a Nomos club sport neomatik worldtimer that was purchased on the metal bracelet, I want to try out one of Nomos’ textile straps. From my understanding these textile straps don’t come with spring bars and thus you have to purchase the spring bars separately on the Nomos website.

When looking at the picture of the spring bars on Nomos’ website, they don’t appear to have any shoulders to grab on to with a spring bar tool. If this is the case, I’m confused about how they would be removed after installing, can anyone provide any insight here?

I found the 2nd picture on Reddit where you can see there is no way to remove the spring bar with a tool, is this correct?

EDIT: I received the following response from the Nomos service department, though it doesn’t really help clarify anything -
“Yes, there are no “shoulders” on these spring bars – they are considered to have “hidden” spring bars. Different straps require certain tools and ways to use them, such as the Clubs.
 
You will need to have our Watchstrap replacement tool to remove the spring bars from a textile strap suitable for the Worldtimer”

I’ve been having a weird issue with my tegimented quick adjust clasp (for U50), hopefully someone has advice.

The clasp doesn’t feel like it’s latching all the way, when you open it there is a loud audible click and it shoots open like it’s spring loaded/ under pressure. Never did this before and only started doing it today, additionally the QA clasp for my 556 doesn’t do it either. I’ve included a video of my weird clicking clasp and normal smooth clasp on this post.

The mechanism is simple and I can’t see anything wrong with it, already washed with warm soap and water twice. I don’t recall doing anything to the watch or clasp to cause this.

Has anyone else experienced this or have any guidance on how to fix?
